DeLorean hovercraft shows up in McCovey Cove

What's better than any Back to the Future tribute DeLorean? This. Because hovercraft.

And thanks to the guys at Deadspin, we can present video of it frolicking in McCovey Cove outside last night's Giants/Rockies game. As Deadspin reports, the DeLorean hovercraft's build was Kickstarter-funded and previously covered by MAKE. The finished product, which you can watch in action below, is fantastic.

It's a Hovercraft, not a balloon, it's a flexible open bottom skirt, the fan at the rear is ******* air into it and the air is circulating under the skirt, so he is actually riding on a cushion of air. it will go over cement just fine, although such a small fragile looking skirt would limit it's ability's quite a bit, compared to say a large military hovercraft. Google it, I am sure you will find a better explanation of how it works than I can give.
